GM is trialing the fuel in maintenance and metal-working activities at its Grand Blanc Weld & Tool Center in Flint, Mich. MagneGas will ship their fuel cylinders from its production facility in Michigan.

GM tested MagneGas™, assessing its environmental, health and safety impacts. It found it cut cleaner, faster and is more cost-effective than acetylene.

'We are always in pursuit of technologies that enhance quality and efficiency while also performing well on a holistic business case,' said John Bradburn, manager of waste-reduction efforts at GM. 'In its current state, this technology does just that. We're working closely with MagneGas to discuss possible future applications with potential to reduce our environmental impact.'

'The fact that a world-renowned and storied company like GM would use MagneGas™ is an endorsement to the quality and benefits of our gas,' said Marc Cuffaro, executive vice president of MagneGas Business Development.

'We're excited at the prospect of building a long-lasting relationship with GM and we will continue to capitalize on growth opportunities by showcasing the versatility and superiority of MagneGas™,' commented Scott Wainwright, president of MagneGas Corp.

Water and carbon dioxide (CO2) can be converted into ‘solar thermochemical fuel’ using energy from the sun and very high temperatures. A new study has analysed the production of this fuel and found that, under favourable future conditions, costs could be as little as €1.28 per litre, with close to zero life-cycle greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Although suitable as a substitute for any hydrocarbon fuel, it could be particularly useful as a muchneeded alternative for energy-dense jet fuel.

By 2030, more energy will be saved than the amount of energy consumed deriving from oil, according to a JRC analysis. Energy savings can thus be considered as "an energy source in its own right", in line with the European Commission strategy for a resilient energy union. As Europe is likely to miss the intermediary 2020 target of 20% of energy saved, the authors recommend scaling up private investments and introducing a guarantee fund to remove the perceived risk by investors.
